71 71. The Final Battle - 1


    Orion then turned to face the boss monster, who had been patiently waiting for him.


    "Alright, let''s do this," he said, looking at the boss, his eyes burning with determination.


    As he said, Orion jumped from the boat, used his sword to fly away, andnded at a distance from the boat.


    He didn''t want their battle to have any affect on the boat or the people in it. So, he opted for this approach and distanced himself from the boat.


    A momentter, the boss monster alsonded not far from him.


    "Before we fight, let me introduce myself," the boss monster said. "I am Quent, a servant of the Elysian Council."


    Orion didn''t say anything and quietly activated all his curses. First, he used absolute defense, causing his body to glow with a red light. Next, he activated his buff curses, like—Unbridled Fury and Shattered Precision.


    The formar caused his skin to glow in dark red shades as hues of red started to leak out from his body, while thetter was on standby for Orion to use it at any moment.


    He then took out the heavy sword he got after defeating the third guardian and held it tightly with both his hands.


    "You are quite strong for a bronze rank. I will give you that," Quent said as he looked at Orion with interest. "But you think that will be enough to defeat a god?"


    As he finished his words, a ck beam of light released from him, reaching the clouds high up in the sky, which almost caused the sky to turn dark all of a sudden.


    The sun in the sky was still there, but it appeared dark because the ck beam of light was releasing an intense ck glow all around the area, causing the surroundings to turn dim.


    Orion, who stood opposite Quent, looked all around and was shocked. He couldn''t believe this was a bronze rank level power. He thought that his strength, which was buffed from all of his curses, stood at the pinnacle of the bronze rank and even exceeded it. However, witnessing the strength and power of the Quent, heughed at his ignorance.


    ''It''s good that I got myself a new set of strong curses.'' n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    At this moment, he felt fortunate that he got his hands on those new curses; otherwise, he thought that this battle would have been insanely difficult for him.


    "You see, that''s called true power." Quentughed wildly. "Even if I don''t have the power of a god right now, it''s enough to kill ants like you a thousand times."


    "Now,e," he said, then beckoned Orion to start the battle.


    Orion wasted no time, activating Burdened Gravity to reduce his weight, and swiftly arrived in front of Quent. With a deft motion, his heavy sword arced towards Quent''s waist with deadly intent.


    At that moment, Quent smiled slightly as his hands began to release ck mes, and when Orion''s sword arrived near his waist, he caught the sword with his right hand still releasing ck mes.


    Orion frowned. He felt that his sword was caught too easily. Although he didn''t use his full strength in this strike, that didn''t mean his attack could be caught so easily.


    Usually, if someone were to catch his sword midway, there would be some resistance and the momentum of his attack would repel both of them. But this time he felt as if his attack met something soft when it came in contact with the ming hand of Quent and didn''t prove effective as it usually would.


    He then quickly used Shattered Precision on his sword but the result didn''t change as Quent still held his sword in one hand as he looked at him.


    "Too weak."


    Quent muttered. At that moment, he shed with his left hand, but midway, it started to release ck mes heavily and transformed into a big ck w made of ck mesing straight at Orion.


    Noticing that, Orion released one of his swords from his dimensional space from his right side, and as soon as it came, it collided with the iing ck w.


    "Boom!"


    Sparks released, and a low explosion sounded as his sword and w collided.


    Almost instantly, Orion used Velocity Burst to cover his own heavy sword in red mes, and as soon as his sword caught fire, an explosion happened at the hand of the Quent holding his sword, forcing him to release the sword.


    After that, Orion quickly retreated and made some distance between them.


    "You can also control mes," Quent said, appearing surprised as he looked at him. "Then this fight will be even more interesting."


    As he finished his words, he flicked his w-like hand that had been burning with ck mes into the sky, causing mes in his hand to shoot at the sky like a ck streak of lights.


    By doing that, his hand returned to normal, while in the sky, those ck streaks of lights came to a stop in the air, floating and starting a transformation among themselves.


    Orion saw that those streaks of lights in the air suddenly started to convulse around and form various ck ming eagles flying above him. They were only the size of Orion''s arm, but there were around twenty of them.


    ''Damn!''


    He cursed seeing that, and a momentter, the thing that he feared came true.


    These ck eagles soon descended towards him at breakneck speed.


    He didn''t know if his absolute defense armor would be able to repel them or not. So, he quickly released his other two swords and engulfed all of his swords in red mes before directing them to engage these eagles in the air.


    "Damn!"


    18:12


    In the sky, several explosions happened as red and ck hues surrounded the whole sky. His three swords moved in a zigzag pattern, and whenever they changed direction, it destroyed the ck eagles in that direction.


    However, there were still some eagles that dodged the three swords and came straight at him.


    Orion saw that there were four of theming towards him. He didn''t care about these eagles and swung his heavy sword with both hands at the iing eagles.


    They didn''t stand a chance and exploded aftering in contact with his sword.


    After he destroyed every ming eagle that approached him, smoke filled the area around him because of the explosion of these ming eagles.


    But the smoke didn''t affect his vision too much, as he saw something in the distance that made him curse the shamelessness of the god in front of him.


    He saw another ming eagle making its way towards him, and this was not like others before; this was as big as Orion himself. It pped its wings as it flew towards him.


    "Damn!"


    He quickly held his big sword tightly and threw it towards the iing ming eagle.


    "BOOM!"


    An explosion happened the moment his sword struck the ming eagle, causing the area below the explosion to be scorched ck.


    ck residues of mes scattered around the area and ck glowing particles fell from the air where the explosion happened.


    As Orion observed this, he quickly summoned back his heavy sword, which flew back on hismand, and thought something about the fight.


    ''From the fight just now, I can tell his mes have two properties. First, his mes can be as soft as possible and may be hard too and second, whatever projectiles he conjures with his mes explode as soon as ite in contact with anything.''


    Although all this time it appeared he had been forced to retreat by Quent, he also observed many things and learned about him.


    ''It''s time I take the initiative.''


    He thought as he prepared himself to attack.
